Keep those makeup brushes clean!

Thanks to the ladies over at the fab ADesign Brushes, they gave me the dirt on, well, how to get the dirt out of those makeup brushes that you use every single day.

Shana King, a Pro Makeup Artist and Founder of adesign brushes, knows how to work a brush. Below she recommends a few easy tips to clean, maintain and store your favorite beauty tools.

HOW TO GIVE YOUR BRUSHES A CLEAN SWEEP

1. Storage: Store brushes in their custom pouches to assure they stay safe, so that the bristles will not be crushed.

2. Cleaning: Once a month use mild soap or shampoo and water. Gently work soap or shampoo through the bristles. Swirl the brush in circles in the palm of your hand and rinse under water, until water is clear.

3. Drying: If possible, brushes love to be hung up, bristles facing to the floor to assure all moisture is removed.

4. Quick Cleanings: As needed, use an alcohol-free swab to remove excess makeup in between big washes.
